Some folks like to get away
Take a holiday from the neighborhood
Hop a flight to miami beach or to hollywood
But i`m takin` a greyhound
On the hudson river line
I`m in a new york state of mind
Seen all those movie stars
And their fancy cars and their limousines
Been high in the rockies, under the evergreens
But i know what i`m needin`
And i don`t wanna waste more time
I`m in a new york state of mind
It was so easy livin` day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and blues
But now i need a little give and take
The new york times and the daily news
Comes down to reality
And it`s fine with me cause i`ve let it slide
I don`t care if it`s chinatown or up on riverside
I don`t have any reasons
I`ve left them all behind
I`m in a new york state of mind
I don`t have any reasons
Cause left them all behind
I`m in a new york, i`m in a new york state of mind... Send " New York State Of Mind" Ringtone to your Cell
